I'm trying not to freak out. But there is a huge winter storm predicted for Monday into Tuesday. And my surgery is scheduled for Tuesday morning! I know that I will get there. I live 20 minutes from the hospital and I'll leave an hour or more early to get there. But I am so worried that the hospital or the surgeon may cancel. I plan on calling my surgeon's office tomorrow just to see if they ever cancel due to inclement weather. And when the hospital calls me with my admission time I will ask them the same thing. I realize that it will not be the complete end of the world if it gets rescheduled, but I have already waited so long, have my heart completely set, I am finally truly ready and committed to weight loss. I have the days requested and approved to be off from my job, as do my boyfriend and mother. So not only would a cancelation be very upsetting, but myself and my family would have to try to get different days off and whatnot. By no means would I want anyone risking their life to get there! I am just wondering if anyone had heard of surgeries getting canceled due to snow?..

Thank you!

And this storm was not a blizzard in nj.

Got 6 inches in bergen county

Long Island has gotten over 20 inches.Massachusetts I spoke to someone who lives there today and he had 30 inches at 1 pm tosay

I am on LI but made my way into NYC yesterday and was a block

from hotel when I got the call that I was cancelled. NYC got 8 inches at Central Park!!!! Really ticked off!!!

Looks like only New England got anything close to a blizzard. I barely had an inch in front of my house. I just swept and salted the sidewalk. No shoveling needed.

I'm in Long Island and mine was rescheduled from Monday to friday ! It wasn't even bad by me! I'm on the south shore by the beach. The wind kept moving the snow so it kept drifting.

We sure did! I'm in NH and we got 25 inches whet I live

So! My surgery was rescheduled. The office called me on Monday, the day before the storm, to tell me that the hospital canceled all of their surgeries. It was a sad day for me. I realized that in the long run it won't make a difference. But in that moment it was huge. At least she called before I had started my bowel prep! Lol the plus side is that I'm rescheduled for Monday. So it's getting so close! Sunday night it is supposed to snow again and I am watching the weather like a hawk! Lol I haven't gotten a chance to post because I dropped my iPhone in the toilet on Monday as well! Banner day for me! But thank you to everyone for their well wishes and stories! I hope everyone's surgery goes (or went) smoothly!

Light and love,
